Question
Hi my name is Markeisha I just turned 16 last Sunday and my boyfriends name is Felipe he will be 18 the end of May. We have been going out 4 months last Friday although I was just recently allowed to date on Sunday. My problem is that I feel that we are drifting apart but he seems content. I know that he loves me and he's not a very physical type of guy so I never really gave him any grief when we weren't close. That was until he came over my house one night and ever since then he has been asking to come over again and I keep telling him no. I feel that I shouldn't have taken that risk of having him in my house when i am not ready for sex and being alone with him knowing that he wants to have sex is a big temptation. I think that is part of our problem I'm not ready for sex...in my head I keep going back in forth on me being ready or not and I feel that I am not ready until I am consistent on yes. I know that sex comes with a lot of responsibilities that I don't know if I am ready for. I love kids and could probably mother a kid now but I'm not ready for one because I am not ready to give up my basketball and softball careers. We keep talking about it and he always asks me why and I tell him that too many of my friends are pregnant and I see that they had to give up a lot that I'm not ready to give up especially my body. I don't know what to do. It's not all about sex either just him kissing me and hugging me. We have been together for 4 months now and have only kissed and hugged once ( that night at my house on June 23) I really love him and don't know what to do to make things right with us. If you cant understand this then i understand i know that I've kind of been going in circles.

Answer
Hi,
Happy late birthday. It appears to me like he doesn't respect you. Trying to push you into something that is not right, risky, and maybe even illegal is just wrong. If he cares about you, he would respect you when you say no. He would respect your parents wishes for not wanting to date. Sorry about the truth.

Please ask follow ups

Talk to a doctor about sex risks.
